            <h1>How does GIS affect our lives?</h1>
        </div>

        <div id="daily" class="step" data-x=2200 data-rotate=90>
            <p>Let's do a quick review of our daily lives and see how GIS is
            an <b>integral</b> part of it.</p>
        </div>

        <div id="point1" class="step" data-x=2400 data-y=1000>
            <h1><img src="img/switch.png" height=140px /></h1>
            <h2>1. You wake up and turn on the lights.</h2>
        </div>

        <div id="subpoint1" class="sub step" data-x=2400 data-y=1000 data-z=-1000 data-scale=0.3 data-rotate=-180>
            <p>A typical domestic electrical company uses <b>GIS</b> to manage its
            huge infrastructure, consisting of widespread transmission lines
            spread over acres of land.</p>
        </div>

        <div id="point2" class="step" data-x=2100 data-y=1500 data-rotate=30>
            <h1><img src="img/newspaper.png" height=140px /></h1>
            <h2>2. You go outside, to pick up the <b>newspaper</b></h2>
        </div>

        <div id="subpoint2" class="sub step" data-x=2100 data-y=1500 data-z=-1000 data-scale=0.3>
            <p>The newspaper circulation department uses <b>GIS</b> to understand the
             <i>dynamics and demographics</i> of carrier routes, the basic unit used to 
             report and study circulation.</p>
        </div> 

        <div id="point3" class="step" data-x=1200 data-y=1400 data-rotate=-90>
            <img src="img/car.png" height=140px />
            <h2>3. You drive to work</h2>
        </div>

        <div id="subpoint3" class="sub step" data-x=1200 data-y=1400 data-z=-1000 data-scale=0.3 data-rotate=-180>
            <p>Roads are safer because of <b>GIS</b>. It is used to manage the transportation infrastructre.</p>
            <p>More than 80 percent information used to manage rail, road, and port facilities
            have a spatial component.</p>
        </div>

        <div id="pointlast" class="step" data-x=900 data-y=1000 data-rotate=-180 data-rotate-x=30>
            <h2>And your day continues...</h2>
            <p>GIS has been there nearly at every step of the day, helping your life become better.</p>
            <p>All possible through the power of <b>Geography and GIS</b>.
        </div>

        <div id="what" class="step" data-x=-400 data-y=900 data-rotate-y=-30>
            <h1>But, <b>what</b> is GIS?</h1>
        </div>

        <div id="what1" class="step" data-x=-400 data-y=1400 data-z=-800 data-rotate=200>
            <p><b>G</b>eographic <b>I</b>nformation <b>S</b>ystems, are tools used to gather, transform, 
            manipulate, analyze, and produce information related to the surface of the Earth. </p>
            <p>This data may exist as maps, 3D virtual models, tables, and/or lists.</p>
        </div>

        <div id="do" class="step" data-x=-400 data-y=2000 data-rotate=10>
            <h1>What can GIS do for you?</h1>
        </div> 

        <div id="do1" class="step" data-x=-900 data-y=2000 data-z=-600 data-rotate-y=-70>
            <h2>Perform Geographic Queries and Analysis.</h2>
        </div>

        <div id="do1-sub" class="sub step" data-x=-700 data-y=2000 data-z=-1000 data-scale=0.3 data-rotate=180>
            <h1><img src="img/queries.gif" height=260px /></h1>
            <p>A realtor could use a GIS to find all houses within a certain area that have tiled 
            roofs and five bedrooms, then list their characteristics.</p>
        </div>

        <div id="do2" class="step" data-x=-1400 data-y=1800>
            <h2>Improve Organizational Integration</h2>
        </div>

        <div id="do2-sub" class="sub step" data-x=-1400 data-y=1800 data-z=-1000 data-scale=0.3 data-rotate=90>
            <h1><img src="img/ioi.gif" height=260px /></h1>
            <p>Because GISs have the ability to link data sets together by geography, they 
            facilitate interdepartmental information sharing and communication.</p>
        </div>

        <div id="do3" class="step" data-x=-1700 data-y=1300 data-rotate=180 data-rotate-y=40>
            <h2>Making Maps</h2>
        </div>

        <div id="do3-sub" class="sub step" data-x=-1400 data-y=1400 data-z=-1000 data-scale=0.3>
            <h1><img src="img/maps.gif" height=180px /></h1>
            <p>The process of making maps with GIS is much more flexible than traditional approaches.
            It begins with database creation. Existing paper maps can be digitized and translated into the GIS.</p>
